ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTE TO BE 'LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION MEMORIAL TO PIONEERS. In in the States there has been erected fitting and proper memorials or monuments to those sturdy pioneers who crossed the plains in the face of terrific odds to build an empire on the Pacific. The children and descendants of those forty-niners later migrated to the North and now their sun, too, is sinking as time takes its toll. But is there to be nothing to mark their passing? Eiler Hansen, Superintendent of the Pioneers’ Home, who is in daily close contact with many of these strong-hearted and courageouys pioneers, has suggested that a memorial of some sort be erected to their memory, and an excellent idea it is. We cannot let these makers of the North pass into history without some momento to show recogni- tion, however slight, for the debt of gratitude we owe them. As Mr. Hansen points out, “the Pioneers of '98 gradually are diminishing in number.” They will not be long with us and the generations to follow natur- ally will be inclined to more easily forget the hard- ships and tribulations those first men and women went through that Alaska and rich country many places are still with us. Bequests of nearly $6,000 already have been made to the Pioneers by various viduals and the Board of Trustees has indicated it would not be adverse to using the funds for such might become a great| The time to act as the Supefln»i tendent says is now, while some of those pioneers | indi- | THE |doesn’t seem to be any good reason why the average person with normal facilities cannot pilot a plane.

ENTER THE “AIR FLIVVER.” The other day back in Detroit a three-wheeled tailless plane took the air, soared around and then, when about 50 feet above ground, it stalled and descended directly to earth. Onlookers feared for the worst, but the pilot did nothing but speed up his motor and take the air again, repeating a similar landing when he came in the second time, virtually flying into the ground. Examination re- vealed the craft to be unscathed by the unorthodox handling, despite the fact that it had stopped in' its own length when the brakes were applied. Thus enters the “air flivver” into the aviation picture in fact. This is the kind of plane that Eugene Vidal, Director of the United States Burean of Air Commerce, proposes to make popular and sell for around $700 The Detroit demonstration was staged to show that aircraft has been devel- oped to the point where it is almost fool proof, and | Vidal sees celling at the price of an automobile, a future with thousands of planes winging their way about the skies and piloted by the same .persons who today are driving automobiles.
